In November, I noted that Chris Johnson was the career leader in average length of rushing touchdown. Since then, he&#8217;s actually dropped to number two, as his six rushing touchdowns covered &#8220;only&#8221; 84 yards in November and December.

Last week, we announced that our True Receiving Yards metric has now been calculated back to 1950, so it&#8217;s only **** that we also compute WOWY (With Or Without You) for all of those receivers as well. Skip the paragraph after this if you don&#8217;t care about the gory mathematical details,2013-09-24 01:36:059/19: FootballPerspective.com- True Receiving Yards (v2.0) Extended Back to 1950http://www.footballperspective.com/true-receiving-yards-v2-0-extended-back-to-1950/

Last summer, I wrote a post on the percentage of each player&#8217;s receiver yards that came from each quarterback. Aaron Schatz asked the following trivia question yesterday that made me think of that old post. Wes Welker will become the fourth player to catch passes from both Tom Brady and Peyton2013-07-13 00:36:156/28: FootballPerspective.com- Another way to examine the best wide receiver seasons everhttp://www.footballperspective.com/another-way-to-examine-the-best-wide-receiver-seasons-ever/

The same is true for receiving yards, as the number of times a team passes the ball has a big impact on a receiver&#8217;s yardage total. I&#8217;ve spent some time this year2013-06-28 00:37:32
